Both the House and Senate used to hold hearings with respect to the pros and cons of legislation. Massive spending bills like this being rammed through complete subvert the entire process.
There is no time allowed to debate the individual merits of all the components of the pork thrown into something this monstrous.
It's a destruction of the entire process in a blatant and furious power grab under cover of darkness and secrecy.
“It’s a destruction of the entire process in a blatant and furious power grab under cover of darkness and secrecy.”
Correct!

They cant keep us in the dark.
